@angel64926 Apparently he's been doing that since he was little when he couldn't shoot a regular shot.
They should really put the plays in context, that is, which game it was from, playoffs, reg season, etc, otherwise these are just "plays" and not most important plays
@ThePimpnamedslikback As someone stated above it is. Managed to put up about 54 with him using it almost every time down the court. If you have it hold just hold down the shoot button.
i'd take Kareem in his prime over Wilt anyday..kareem could hit the 16 footer effectively,hit freethrows and the hook is the most dominant weapon in sports,period...plus he played at that level in a ,more competitive era...he went up against Willis Reed, Bob Lanier,Artis Gilmore,Bill Walton,Moses Malone,Robert Parish,Patrick Ewing,Olajuwon... as much as i admire and acknowlege Wilts accolades,who did he go up against besides Russell??
Kareem hands down is the best basketball player of all time. Not Jordan. Kareem does not get the credit because he did not play in the day of big media and he was not media friendly. No one else matches his overrall career. The books just don't lie and the books say he is the best. When many people talk about being the best they don't look at stats. No one has a basketball resume like Kareem-"the GOAT"!!!
@remoand Haha, get real . Have you seen Jordan play? Kareem the best big man of all time...probably, but nobody took over a game like Jordan. Get the fuck out with that shit.
That dude looks fucking hideous, but played so good. As many records as he set compared to Jordan, I wonder why Kareem isn't the greatest of all time instead of Jordan
if all he has ti show for in a 20 year career are sky hooks and the same block that dwight howard does every game.... well this guy doesnt even look like a top 50 all time
@AlexBarcus or you could compare all his records to dwight howard or any other NBA player ever then youll look stupid and oh yea dwight howard canot block a kareem sky hook no one can.
@AlexBarcus his hook shot and shot-blocking paved the way for his 38,387 points and 3,189 blocks during his consistent 20-year career. oh and unlike dwight howard, he's a college graduate =)
The dunk was banned in college basketball after the 1967 season, primarily because of Alcindor's dominant use of the shot.[4][6] It was not allowed again until 1976.
Guys if ur going by stats !!!!!!!!!!!!! Karim is the best, his stats dominate and is number 1 over all lol, butttttttttttttt , How many seasons did jordan not play? hehe, go do your research then ull understand why jordan is not number 1 over all in points, if jordan played all seasons, he woulda destroyed the point chart, no doubt, easily

That skyhook against the Celts in 74 is truly his greatest moment.
They'd have won that series easily if their top guard, Lucius Allen was available.
He missed the entire series due to injury. The Celtics took advantage by double teaming an aging Oscar Robertson and stressing the thin guard line of the Bucks.
I am a huge basketball fan and I was hearing alot about Kareem and so I decided to watch the video and when i saw that hook shot...Oh my goodness...Its a thing of beauty, its an art form by itself!
can you say alll day long? That was how long he'd make the "Sky Hook" The most artistic shot ever in the NBA . The Sky Hook is the only named shot in NBA history that belongs to one baller,That's Mr Jabbar. never saw the Beatles never saw Ali but i saw Jabbar in person and Nate the great gave him all he could handle. What a show, game . I might be a little off but when Jabbar was in his twenties the release was from a foot above the rim from everywhere he took it. 13' out 1' above the rim.omg
They call me Abdul Jabbar in S'pore. I call Abdul Jabbar, the master ok hook shots!! He's the greatest and I'm proud to live under his name in basketball! XD
KAREEM IS ARABIC WORD MEANS GIVENESS UNSELFISH, AND IT MATCH Kareem Abdul-Jabbar TO THE TEETH, HE USED TO ALWAYS SHARE THE BALL AND HE IS A TEAM PLAYER (THE CAPTAIN). I'M SO GLAD HE STIL WITH THE LOS ANGELES LAKERS ASSOCIATION HE IS JUST GREAT PERSON FROM ANY WAY YOU LOOK AT HIM, HE JUST HAVE TO SMILE MORE OFTEN HE IS ALWAYS SERIOUS BUT HE IS THE BEST WE ALL LOVE HIM. YOU SEE I'M THE BIGGEST LAKERS FAN EVER WALK THIS EARTH AND THAT'S ALL WHAT I BELIEVEIN GOLD AND PURPLE. GO LAKERS ALL HTE WAY!!!
Mr. Jabbar were here in Rio, Brazil, this 27th, january, and we were very happy.
